[Intro]
D A Em Bm D A Bm G [Verse]
D A Em Bm I spent the summer in Santa Cruz D A And I met a blonde on the beach with
Bm G
lots of quirky tattoos D A She had that old movie quote,
Em Bm
"We're gonna need a bigger boat" D A Two tiny waves on her toes and
Bm G
turtle tracks on her collarbones [Pre-Chorus]
Em G A I asked her what they meant Em Bm A And this is what she said [Chorus]
A Bm You gotta go with the flow
D/F# G
'cause the tides always turnin' A Bm And sink or swim, divin' in is the
D/F# G
best way to learn A Bm Kick up the sand 'cause your tan proves
D/F# G
you lived through the burn A Bm And when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt D/F# G Bm A You can't stop the waves but you can learn
A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G

D A And I met a blonde on the beach with
Bm G
lots of quirky tattoos D A She had a shark on her arm,
Em Bm
a pirate shredin' the gnar D A Bm An octopus wearin' shades and seagull wings
G
on her shoulder blades [Pre-Chorus]
Em G A I asked her what they meant Em Bm A And this is what she said [Chorus] A Bm You gotta go with the flow
D/F# G
'cause the tides always turnin' A Bm And sink or swim, divin' in is the
D/F# G
best way to learn A Bm Kick up the sand 'cause your tan proves

D/F# G (Go with the flow) A Then she said, "When you're sad and
G
you feel alone Bm A Write 'em down, all your worries and woes" G (Go with the flow) A "Then, fold 'em up, cork it shut and
Bm
let that bottle go G A D And set your troubles afloat" [Instrumental]
A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G [Chorus] A Bm She told me, "Hey, seize the day,
